Stay 1 Sea View Terrace El Morche

From the moment you step onto the promenade and breathe in the salt air you know you are in a place that has mastered the art of living outdoors. The Sea View Terrace in El Morche places you right above the water, where mornings begin with a clear horizon and a coffee that tastes better because it is sipped with a seascape that seems to go on forever. The waking light over the Strait of Malaga turns the sea into a painterly canvas and you cannot help but grab your camera and head for the shore path.

During a day in El Morche you can launch a small kayak from the rocky inlets or simply kick back on a sun warmed rock with a chilled drink and a good book. The long beach is ideal for a morning jog or a relaxed stroll with friends, pausing for a share plate at one of the family run chiringuitos. If you fancy a little exploration, a short ride inland brings you to Torrox Costa town for a market stroll and a taste of locally grown citrus and almonds. In the evening the terrace becomes your prime lookout for the sunset, a perfect backdrop to a group cook up of grilled prawns and a sangria that never quite tastes the same twice.

If your plan includes a morning paddle in the calm cove waters and an afternoon wander through Nerja town, this stay gives you the sweet spot of both worlds. The caves are a constant lure and the Balcon de Europa is a sunset must for a group photo with the entire coastline as your backdrop.

During a Nerja based day, you can follow a lunch of grilled fish with lemon at a cliffside restaurant and then stroll along the Balcon de Europa as the sun heats the white walls and the sea glows a deeper blue. In the afternoon, consider a quick drive to the nearby caves, where stalactites glitter with natural light that slips in from above. If you are up for a spice of urban life, Nerja town offers small galleries and craft shops where you can pick up local olive oils and honey to take home as souvenirs for friends who could not join the trip.
